Fleischman and Pons have recieved much ridicule in the
past 12 years from their conclusions regarding their
"cold fusion" experiments. Whether the ridicule is
warranted or not, I doubt that Fleischman and Pons wasted
nearly as much US Taxpayer $$ as those working on "hot
fusion" projects, such as at Princeton. These scientists,
many of whom trot around the globe going from conference
to conference, paid for by the NSF and the Department of
Energy, have been promising fusion power for the last 40
years, but instead have delivered nothing. Ironically,
many of these scientists are the biggest critics of Fleisch-
man and Pons. I really hope some day, someone proves
Pons and Fleischman right. I really do.

OOOOHHHH.....EXCELLENT POINT !!!!

In retrospect, F&P should have kept quiet on the patent and asked for peer review of the anomoly.
